About this activity
Did you know that Braga was originally an important city in the Roman Empire? That this city was the capital of one of the oldest Christian kingdoms in all of Western Europe? That this city is intrinsically linked to the history of Portugal? What was the central point of a whole Christian culture that radiated throughout the country? It will be to answer this and many other curiosities that will take you to know Braga.

You will start by visiting the historic center and will take you on a journey through the centuries, from the heritage of one of the most important Roman cities of the Iberian peninsula (Bracara Augusta) to a cosmopolitan and future-oriented city. You will walk through medieval streets, visiting the millennial Cathedral of Braga and the famous Rua do Souto, symbolic center of traditional commerce. It is then time to contemplate the flowery garden of Santa Barbara and the lush Radius Palace with its Baroque architecture. After returning energies with a proof of local products, you will leave in our comfortable van until one of the ex libris of Braga, the Sanctuary of Bom Jesus do Monte, an exaltation to the passion of Christ with its monumental staircase. You will end the visit to the city of Braga with one of the best panoramic views of the whole region, the Shrine of Our Lady of Sameiro.
